Bought my m4 with 60k mile and currently over 95k , I never had single issue. I never had German car before and I was hesitant to buy it first but after two year, I love my car. I can drive like luxury car and I can drive like sports car whenever I want! Currently I’m on stage 2 and I love it

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Ah great to hear! Look forward to adding more power to mine soon!

[@GaterTV]

i wanna get one this year i can afford it but was thinking about reliability

[@yg78t76t7]

I got the same one, in 2016. It's approaching 90k and there's absolutely nothing wrong with it. People need to get it out of their head that 70-90k is high mileague...I've had cars with 220-250k miles that ran like new with full compression in the motor.

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Look after them and they’ll drive all day 😆

[@Sacrifice-Paid]

It’s worse with sports bikes, as soon as a sports bike hits 30k, people say, oh no that’s too high mileage, yet I use mine everyday all year to go to work and back cbr600rr, yet my car is what does low mileage, but still over 100k on the clock, got an E46 330ci m sport 160k on the clock and now also got an E92 330i m sport 104k on the clock, eventually will go onto an M3….

[@bimmerflex5526]

Yes Tim. It’s the best bmw. M4 suits you. It’s been designed to be driven and put thousands of miles on the clock. Are those all season tyres fitted? Your M4 has certainly improved in 6 months. Enjoy it daily. More please…

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Haha thanks, will do! Hope you’re good!

[@brandonhogan6072]

I went to the 2 day M driving school at the Performance Driving Center in Spartanburg, SC. And oh was it fun! I got to drive all of the M cars (except the M8) and i have to say at first i did not think much of the M4, but the more i got to drive it, the more i fell in love. What an awsome car in every way. Its got the looks, personality, and of course the performance. There is no way i could afford a new one, but in the future at some point hoping i can find a good used one. It would be my first BMW. Thanks for the video

[@TimWilliamsHD]

😄 wouldn’t be lying if I said it’s a great car!

[@TimChump]

Interesting if you could try the equal length mid pipe, and the all in one mid pipe to see if you can improve the sound. I think Williams performance stock both 😂

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Need cats back in 😆

[@chrisd2415]

Banging video mate, from a fellow M4 owner, best colour as well. There is something about these cars that just tickle you every time you get in them, I still smile everytime I get in mine or look at it and that’s 18 months later. I’m stage 3 now and about 630bhp 810Nm torque, it’s an animal. Hopefully see you about 👌🏽

[@SH7SH7SH7]

Have you done crankhub

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Nice!! What turbo are you running?

[@chrisd2415]

@@SH7SH7SH7 hi yes, insane 4 pin crank hub, I did mine when I went to stage1, small price for lots of piece of mind

[@chrisd2415]

@@TimWilliamsHD running Littco 640 mate with custom mapping, I wanted to keep the stock quick spooling characteristic.

[@fatbergerr1643]

Thank youuuu I been looking for a vid like this for the longest the m4 is my dream car but all the ones being sold has high mileage so I needed to see how much of a risk it was to get it

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Haha loads to come mate! Documenting the ownership of it on here

[@yashofficial___]

love this car!!! wicked video bro!! 5k miles of smiles

[@TimWilliamsHD]

😆 you know it!

[@avishkarsingh744]

Such a beast. BMW's always do it for me all day every day.

[@TimWilliamsHD]

100% sometimes I feel like I should get something cheaper and smaller but then I go out in and fall in love with it all over again!

[@TimChump]

I’d be really interested how you would honestly rate your 4 bmw cars, which was favourite and least. M2, M4 M140 and M240 As they’re all cars I’ve considered Currently have an M2 but may change it 🤔

[@TimWilliamsHD]

140/240i/M2 and M4…if it was just road car and never seeing track then it’s the 140i, I still have fully gelled with the M4 but it’s potential somehow feels better than the OG..power aside, I feel like the M4 just drives better and feels more M? Silly I know considering most parts are interchangeable but it definitely does compared to the OG…

[@faisalfaruque2849]

I sold my m4 comp last year for profit but have been missing it quite a bit - the pre competition ones have gone down in price quite a bit

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Yes have seen some non high mileage at 22ish

[@XclusiveAaron]

Respect man 👍 I've just bought a high mileage 04 BMW 645i as a second car, loving it so far 👌

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Ah epic stuff! Enjoy it man!

[@arissanz5236]

Excellent video mate, can you advise where you got the Crank Hub job done that you can recommend please?

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Hi mate, I got mine done at Williams performance! Done over 2 days and really happy with it now! Pop them a message and they’ll get you booked in williamsperformance.co.uk/

[@totophandhamaly9944]

I’m about to buy a 2015 with 125k miles for 21k in the USA

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Get some warranty on it mate!

[@GaterTV]

i see one for 25k with 75,000 miles what yall think i need some guidance i'm getting an M4 this year

[@franklineno8616]

Hi Tim,how's the sound of the m4 compared to the 240i,I'm not liking the sound of this or maybe the exhust is tired....

[@TimWilliamsHD]

M240i sounded way better, this is quite loud..putting cats back in as mentioned so that should help with the rasp

[@franklineno8616]

@TimWilliamsHD Much appreciated Tim,the reason I mentioned the exhaust is based on exactly what you said,the m240i with that b58 sounds way better, especially when your on it....

[@m-0769]

What’s the cost for the Crank hub upgrade? I’m collecting my M4 next week, 18 plate with 17k. I want to stage 1 it at some point.

[@TimWilliamsHD]

£2000 and 2 days work from the Williams performance mate! Get it done!

[@harrycharters9607]

Is fuel consumption noticeably worse than the m240i ?

[@TimWilliamsHD]

About 6 mpg less as it’s got 7 gears not 8 like the 140i/240i

[@sezzzi1]

Hi what is your engine oil consumption like ? do you need to top it up often or ever?

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Every 3000 miles..turbos are okay for now but definitely need changing at some point as that’s a sign

[@Noddyunplugged]

Lol my old E92 M3 had a spring too, front near side 😂 …it’s a M thing lol

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Hopefully doesn’t happen again 😆

[@Noddyunplugged]

@@TimWilliamsHD haha hi Tim ..and naaah - I think it’s actually how the car breaks in a new owner, haha. I actually just got my Bilstein B8s for my ‘140 off the alternate Tim W this week - a genuinely really nice guy!

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Hahaha wicked! Happy to hear man, sounds like a great chap! 😉

[@williamsperformanceltd998]

Can’t believe you’ve had that 6 month now

[@TimWilliamsHD]

Will be here in 6 years too 😆

[@jldp24]

What mileage did you buy at?

[@TimWilliamsHD]

89000 I think give or take

[@therealdarriusjames]

How is that a 2 way road lol its narrow asf!
